Children’s Experiences of Being Without a Place to Call Home: What the Research Tells Us

Edna M. Menke, RN; PhD

Ohio State University College of Nursing, Columbus, Ohio

The article provides a critique of qualitative nursing research regarding children’s experiences of being without a place to call home. The phenomena under study were the lived experience of being without a home, feeling uncomfortable, hope, and what was special in the children’s lives. Parse’s criteria for the critique of qualitative research were used. A synthesis of the interpretive findings about the children’s experiences is presented. Recommendations for advancing nursing theory, nursing research, and nursing practice are discussed.

Key Words: children • homelessness • nursing theory • qualitative research
